Sorry, Albert!
Your previous mail reaches me during my vacation. After I started
reading my mails again, I had tons of poppler mails in my mailbox, so I
decided to move them into an archive to read them later, when I have the
time to do it. That's why I missed it (and even that You commit my patch
:-) )
I now quickly created two man pages. Are they sufficient and more
important understandable?

Thomas? Any chance we can get those man pages soon-ish?

Hi all!
Hi
Hi again!
Sorry for this late but therefore now more correct answer. As you
probably know I was very busy implementing overprint, and after that I
took some "free poppler" days!
How I promised long time ago, here now a patch for the poppler
writing
routines and some new helper function, together with two small
sample
programs using them.
I'm resending the patch because what you sent was unnecesarily big
and
scary (which diff program you use?).
I took now Your resent patch as base, completely reviewed it (hopefully
nothing missing) and add the small utility programs pdfextract and
pdfmerge to the patch after learning a little bit more about git. This
patch is now created under ubuntu, so hopefully it is not bigger as
necessary and not so scary. I also renamed the methods according to the
poppler naming conventions, and the utility programs now give up with an
error message, if the or one of the PDFs are encrypted instead of
creating unreadable PDF(s).
Basically there are a few stilistic things i don't like (please
don't
use
this->)
I removed them now.
Also do you really need to have things like ExtractPage in PDFDoc?
Not
sure they make sense to me there
It would be a greater task to move it to pdfextract (and in addition all
the mark methods), but it is probably doable. But on the other hand
there are already routines like saveAs in PDFDoc, so I just rename it to
savePageAs to clearify it. But if You still insist to remove them, I'll
try it.
Hopefully we are not doing work twice. As I read once again Your
posting, I thought that I should do something more on it.
I've commited this patch. Please create man pages for pdfextract and
pdfmerge and send them in as soon as possible so we can include them in
poppler 0.18
